Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra

At BIT Mesra, the Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering is dedicated to the current needs of industry with the flexibility to tune its programmes according to different requirements. Application of new technology in various fields is one of the main focuses in the activities of the department. Department of EEE has recently received grants amounting to Rs. 2.7 Crore from UGC, DST, AICTE, CDAC, TEQIP etc. To strengthen the research facility for the development in design and development of lightning protection system etc. The domain of Smart Grid, Energy Efficient Electrical Motor Drives, Department of EEE has MoUs with University of Padova, Italy and with other Industries.

The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at BIT Mesra exposes the undergraduate students to all fundamental and advanced technology in the field of Electronics and Communication. Some of the advanced papers offered in the curriculum are Fibre Optic Communication, Data and Computer Communication, Satellite Communication Systems, Mobile and Cellular Communications, Telecommunication Switching Circuits, Antenna and Wave Propagation, Optical Fibre Network, Intelligent Instrumentation, Bio-electronic Instrumentation, Advanced Microprocessor, Microelectronic Engineering, VLSI Design, Digital Signal Processing Architecture, Digital Image Processing, Random and Stochastic Processes, Information and Coding Theory, etc. Besides these, the students also learn various computer related papers.
The syllabi are frequently updated to incorporate recent developments considering advancements achieved in the national and international scenario. The Department has several well-equipped laboratories such as Fibre Optics Communication Lab, Microprocessor Lab, Advanced Communication Lab, Microwave Lab, VLSI Design Lab, Intelligent Instrumentation Lab, Antenna Lab, Circuit Simulation Lab, Wireless Networking Lab & DSP Lab, where students are given rigorous practical sessions.
The students are also exposed to virtual laboratory simulation packages like MultiSim, CommSim, Ultiboard, MATLAB, LABView, Mdspice, Fidelity, NS-2, Cadence Design Tools, Active HDL and Synplify as well as to hardware assembly and testing practices. This serves to help the students in gaining practical exposure to these developing technologies. Undergraduate students have to successfully complete a departmental project spanning 3 semesters. Seminars are presented by the students, which give them an opportunity to develop their communication skills. The culmination of these efforts has been the achievement of nearly 100% campus placement in various leading industries and organizations for the last many years.
